I remember my husband and I got sick with an awful flu. He got COVID toes. I asked about getting a test but they weren't testing you unless you had been exposed to someone from Wuhan. We had only been exposed to someone from China who arrived sick and had been visiting with relatives from Wuhan before coming to Canada. My husband had a stroke and he was released the Friday before the lock downs started. The doctors laughed at me when I said I thought the stroke was related to the illness. COVID is a lung disease not a neurological disease they said. being a retired health care researcher I brought up the literature I was seeing but they ignored me. We had no occupational therapy, physio therapy and we couldn't even speak to our doctor on the phone for a month because it took that long for them to authorize telemedicine and I couldn't manage getting my husband to town by myself because he wasn't strong enough with the walker to go that far by himself and I was not allowed to go in with him. If not for family who understood post stroke therapy needs and my retired nurse neighbour I have no idea how we would have managed his recovery.
I remember going in for a routine blood test. They were practically hosing down the chairs in the waiting room with heavily scented disinfectant. I am allergic to scents and between the masks and the scent I felt like I was dying. I very politely asked the woman hosing down chairs to please wait until I was gone to hose down the chair. She lost it and sprayed my right in the face while screaming at me. For once the stupid mask was actually good for something.
I walked into Walmart and they had hand sanitizer on a pole in the door. I was trying to figure out how to work the stupid thing not noticing the foot pedal. The woman at the door screamed at me calling me an idiot for not knowing about the foot pedal. I got yelled at by other customers for not following the arrows on the floor.
My husband had a medical emergency and I took him to the ER. It was a small rural hospital and late at night and no one was in the waiting room. They made me leave and go sit outside in my truck even though it was 2:00 am in February and -40C. When I pointed out the waiting room was empty they told me I was in danger here because of all the sick people and they had security come over and escort me out. I sat for six hours in my truck wondering if my husband was dead or alive.
I remember my two of my neighbours coming to me to tell me I needed to stay away from a certain person because he was threatening to drive me out of town for being unvaxxed.
I recall trying to comfort my friend who did not want the vax but she had to take it or lose her job. She cried. A lot. She still lives in fear of sudden adult death syndrome.
I remember nearly wetting myself trying to find a bathroom because all the bathrooms were closed due to COVID. When I finally snuck into a hospital corridor and used the washroom there I came out to security guards and a nurse screaming at me for not getting screened.
I recall taking my puppy in for his shots and I had to answer question about everything from from breathing to my bowel movements in front of other people also waiting who could hear everything before they would let me in. (I found a different vet.)
Most recently, just two weeks ago, I had a nurse practitioner imply I was crazy and neglecting my health because I don't want the vax and maybe I should be on anti anxiety meds.
At the height of this circus of chaos, repression, rule by fear & diktat, weak, malleable & inert compliance, we have a local selling lottery tickets outside the bank... at the time the bank would allow 3-3 customers whilst the rest queued outside. I was one of those in a queue one afternoon when said lotto-seller directed me to stand on a red marker... I asked him: "do you work for the ministry of health or local municipality? Are you an employee of this bank? Do you report [to] any authority? When the answers came back "no... no...no & no" I politely told him, firmly and with direct eye contact to f**k-off and mound his own damned business.
This pandemic has brought forth the curtain-twitching gossip-mongers, the snitches and ne'er-do-wells and chronic self-appointed social police... but then that has been 'in-plan' by the government cabals, technocracy and WEF/WHO and big-pharma' ~ today, as we see the "Just Stop Oil" protesters being dragged off London streets by members of the public, we are witnessing 'common assault' whilst the police stand and watch before moving in... another deliberate ploy to divide humanity and deconstruct society - down to the family level.
How many of us have fallen out with our kin with little chance of retrieving an 'agreement to disagree'?
What is a matter of real optimism and reality, is the empathy, kindness, compassion and strength in people who are in places such as here.
I certainly remember every one of these... I will never let it escape my memory banks !!! I also remember how kenny back tracked on everything he said prior to rotleys influence over AHS yrs I call her nacheal rotley because she's rotten to the core( maybe to much fermentation going on in her swelled brain) I remember cops abusing kids at outdoor hockey rinks I remember the cities shutting down green belts and parks
I WILL NEVER FORGET ANY OF WHAT THIS GOVT HAS DONE TO THE PEOPLE NEVER
What I mentioned...were only the things in my immediate memory but I'd forgotten so much more that should be added and perhaps have a few things out of place in the timeline...will have to throw this together in a more complete and polished fashion.
Very thorough but you forgot a few! Maybe y'all didn't have to do this in Canada? Haha! When your Amazon packages came you were to wipe them down with antiseptic wipes prior to handling them? or Whenever you'd go through a drive through people would spray or wipe down their food bags, or Starbucks cups! Starbucks actually got smart🧐 and started putting your drink in a container to give it to you. Many people would pick up groceries then leave them in garage before touching them or wipe those down too!
People driving in cars with masks on by themselves. People in the ocean or pool with masks on.
I'll also never forget seeing all the kids playing soccer OUTSIDE with masks on! Or eating on top of buckets in 20 degree weather.
Mask-less parents with masked up kids!
We went to the movies once and were forced to wear masks in the lobby. They then packed us into a theater literally right next to other people. Some wore masks some did not. We didn't. The lady sitting next to me ate her popcorn and drank her pop in-between pulling her mask down to do so with every sip or bite.😂 That was more entertaining than the movie!
Covid was one of the smartest viruses we ever had! Like you could only get covid at church but not at a strip club! Upon entering a restaurant or leaving a restaurant but not while eating. The gym was a no go but the casino was fine.
I hope someone writes a book with pictures one day detailing all of the insanity we all lived through which continues today just in different ways.
Unfortunately I don't think I'll ever forget but sometimes wish I could.
Dude, you did a great job! No possible way to remember all of the absolute insanity we have seen & witnessed. I'm pretty sure my brain has blocked some of it out to protect me. Lol. Love reading your stacks!
I was at the train station in Toronto on February 4, 2020 and the monitors on the wall said that Trudeau was asking Canadians “not to let this virus from China become a racist issue.” I knew right away it wasn’t a pandemic. Haven’t thought otherwise for a microsecond sense.
I remember reading recently that people travelling to the US no longer needed a test, proof of recovery from or any kind of proof of exemption... only... they only needed proof of having had the/a vaccine...
Which categorically proves it has only EVER been about THE VACCINE!
I'm exhausted and I only got midway through. Even as we all had to live through this. I want to throw up at the insanity and mind fuckery. Thank you for this list Sheldon.
I remember having a bunch of friends over for Thanksgiving dinner despite being told not to. I remember going out to support restaurants that were barely keeping their doors open. I remember my commitment to our local Home Hardware store to make them our primary supplier. I remember the joy I felt watching the truckers heading across Canada in the dead of winter.
I feel grateful to have found your stack. The political weapon of choice in the last few years is the plow, running through people, rules and institutions as hard, fast and far as possible til we forget, or give up on fighting for reality. The antidote is this article, we will not forget.
I’ve often wondered....was the whole fuck up of not procuring enough vaccines by Trudeau just a way to get more people vaxxed ? Like when you really want something but can’t get it, you want it even more. Or am I getting more paranoid by the day?
I've thought similar...my thoughts were that they had JT by the short and curlies and the only way he could get these deliveries was by signing up for a lifetime subscription.
Yes it’s a marketing tactic. If the population believes a product is exclusive or in short supply then the demand for said product increases. People feel that they don’t want to lose out so they want what they think they might not have access to more. If there is a perception of limited supply people get excited and want the product, but there was more than enough supply. The diamond industry-De Boer’s is a perfect example.
I definitely think that was part of the propaganda in the beginning. Then when not enough people were lining up anymore they started using coercion. They have all the tricks up their sleeves. (Lucky for us we’ve been watching their hands the whole time) 🎩🪄
I've been saying this for so long, no one I talk to even seems to remember.
It was a brilliant little psyop, such perfectly engineered FOMO, started out by Erin Otoole. Even the CBC got in on it at some point, hammering on Trudeau and Co for botching the jab orders.
Remember, Canada wasn't going to have any or enough shots, Canada was going to be left behind as the world re-opened......
This is so powerful.
I do remember too.
And I will NOT rest.
It's truly been the most craziest of times...
With you on the Not Resting thing, Igor. I've made my commitments to make sure and see this thing through.
These 'creatures' love war... let us in our billions, let's give them one...
Bless you, Sheldon and Igor, you are treasures 💖
❤️❤️❤️
(Your sentiment deserves so many likes!)
To all the heroes who have been there from the start, and who won’t quit until the deception stops
🍻 🥂
Igor! Good to see you here!
Unfortunately, yes, I do remember......let's never forget.....wow......what a great compilation.......

I could go on. It's not over yet.
So horrible. So many people have suffered so much abuse these last few years. We must never forget.

Absolutely. Such a beautiful supportive community here, blessings to you as well.
Do you remember when your GP couldn't tell you the vax status of your spouse, but every waitress in town had a right to know?
Pure Fucking Insanity!
I do. Such a comprehensive compilation of the “greatest COVID hits 2020-2022”. Thank you Sheldon. Everyone should be reminded.

I'll do up a more complete and polished version.
This was just something I started hammering away at and have been reminded of a lot of the things that I'd forgotten.

In some places you could only catch it after 8pm

I feel ya, Kev.
By the time I'd finished hammering this out, I was completely exhausted (thus the grammar and spelling errors)
I remember having a bunch of friends over for Thanksgiving dinner despite being told not to. I remember going out to support restaurants that were barely keeping their doors open. I remember my commitment to our local Home Hardware store to make them our primary supplier. I remember the joy I felt watching the truckers heading across Canada in the dead of winter.
We broke all of the rules on this too.
Fuck em. My family is more important than their rules!

Yack, best post ever.
Thanks, RSMK.
Greatly appreciated!
I remember my 33year career in health care getting tossed in the garbage can! Thanks Bonnie!!
So many people harmed by this lunacy...my post can't even come close to covering it all.
Thank you for your sacrifices, JLG!
How about having to stay at a hotel for three days when you flew back into Canada - and paying for it yourself?
They Come Near Me With Masks, Test's Or Anything Else I Will Flatten More Than The Curve!
lol
Amazing. Thank you.
